not sure how I feel about this loved the character and actress (till she stole my dream man)

According to Wikpedia Ruth Osbourne is also set for a permanent return to Hollyoaks early 2017 maybe a long term character is going to be killed off or something?

OMG I never thought Jude would return.

Interesting news, despite it being 18 years I remember Jude quite well, I hope she comes back with some kids too boost the Cunninghams!

She the original HO bad girl.

If they brought back Dawn's daughter with Jack, Beth that be good aswell.

I also remember her too

Jambo and Dawn days...

I don't think it will work, in fact I think it will be a disaster!

I'm usually a nostalgic old fool but Kirkwood struggles to respect history which he created nevermind something way before his time.

I only started watching HO in 2008 so never saw Jude during her original stint but do know of her character, although, could someone fill me in on whether she was a good actress/character? I'm interested to see how this pans out to be honest.

That is a surprise. Jude used to be a right gobby so and so..a '90s Mercedes.

Davinia had become better known, for a while, for hanging out with Kate Moss and her so-called Primrose Hill Set.

Wasn't she supposed to return before, about ten years ago and then it got cancelled at the last minute?

I think she got fired the first time for being late and difficult to work with - the original Stephanie Davis!

That said I did enjoy the character first time round.

She was suppose to return for Max's wedding to Claire, I think, I do not think she ever made it to set, it all fell through I presume for her personal issues that was going on at the time.

I'm not too bothered it being a going wrong considering how HO has been at the moment, I don't think it could get any worse, I be interested too see where it goes, I liked her in the original stint and she has ties.

Could she be married to Duncan James's character?

Nice to see.

Nooo! Unless it's a different actress. Terri dwyer is terribl

I've said for years I wanted a Jude return, I just hope Berkwood doesn't mess it up.

I can't believe it's been 18 years since she was in it

What was she like!?

So she'll probs return as a serial killer or something yay...

I'll be the first.

Hey Jude.

Flipping heck, I'm old enough to remember her from her first stint. I like it when soaps bring back older characters for those of us who have been watching for a while. Jude was of course one of the minority of Hollyoaks residents to make it out of the place other than in a wooden box.
